Pros

Compensation is good although they have dumbed down the benefits to the point that they are pretty much like everyone else.

Cons

They are very self centered meaning they inundate the employees with propaganda on how to think and feel about everything. I believe this is because they do whats good for the company (CYA). I understand the need for some of that but the scale has been tipped way in the their direction. Long gone are the days of the company being employee centered.

Pros

Benefits may be ok. you can really go to work for other position once u meet requirements.( about 1 year) OT is a plus. If you love money and don't care about your life balance, then it's perfect for you. Sometimes if you have no

Cons

Poor training on the so called " Floor". Managers don't care about you, you are just a number. Kinda Boot camp crappy style.. for 1st training days before going to "the floor". If you get relocated, then live with it. They do it mandatory regardless of huge distance from our home. And never is gonna be the same. Racism ( Whites) is under the hut. they do not have exactly the right tools for the job, sometimes you improve. Parkings are tight and hard to get when coming early for OT.

Pros

Everyday I feel blessed to have the opportunity to learn something new and be challenged in my career. I find the responsibilities I am given to be rewarding. My coworkers are respectful and helpful any time I need assistance. Additionally, I have ADHD, and Boeing has provide many accommodations that help me overcome my struggles with distraction, hyperactivity and impulsiveness.

Cons

Nearly 10,000 Baby Boomers are retiring every day. Boeing is loosing years of knowledge, quicker than it can transfer it to the next generation.
